Award Symposium for the LCGC Lifetime Achievement and Emerging Leader Awards
March 3rd 2020The 2020 winners of the LCGC Lifetime Achievement and Emerging Leader Awards, Daniel W. Armstrong of the University of Texas at Arlington, and Szabolcs Fekete of the University of Geneva, will be honored in this Tuesday afternoon session, in room W183A.
High-Throughput Methods in LC, MS, and SFC
March 2nd 2020This afternoon session takes place in Room W176C. Zack Gurard-Levin of SAMDI Tech, will kick off the session with a talk describing the combination of high-density biochip arrays presenting self-assembled monolayers (SAMS) of alkanethiolates on gold with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) MS to create a technique, referred to as SAMDI.
Analysis of the compositional variation in living cells is essential for understanding biological processes. Single-cell elemental analysis by triple-quadrupole ICP-MS is emerging as a selective, highly sensitive, and potentially high-throughput technique for the study of constitutive elements, and uptake of metallodrugs (or metal-containing nanomaterials) in single cells.
Rapid Quantitation of PFAS in Non-Potable Waters
March 1st 2020The presence of per- and polyfluoralkyl substances (PFAS) in water is an important health and environmental concern. Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) has been established as the most suitable technology for monitoring these substances. A method is described, using EPA 8327, for PFAS analysis in groundwater, surface water, and wastewater.
